I'll try to stay away from politics and touch a social phenomena with this pic ;)
Freedom of speech + a market for that speech (a-ka journalism) actually enforce internal censorship, unconscious internal censorship, that is!
Here's an example: this side of the 6'th of May rally in Moscow was not selling, no one wanted to print people relaxing when nationalists clashed with the police some 20 meters form the spot... thus no one saw this side of the event, instead what sold, and got printed are images of the clashes.... now everyone thinks that all there was is violence and blood.
And now to the objectivity and freedom of speech in a market environment paradox, because the pro's knew that this kind of shot will not sell, almost no one even bothered to make it...
